Need some extra guidance on your pitch? Wanting some one-on-one with an exec to get your pitch really polished? You know the importance of a strong pitch, but so many factors go into making it resonate, and it always requires more practice than you think. In your private 30-minute call with the exec, you'll get tailored guidance to prepare you for your best delivery yet. Submit your 1-2 page written pitch for the exec's prior review, and you'll begin the call by giving your 5-7 minute verbal pitch. You’ll then discuss delivery, clarity, structure, characterization, pacing, the opening of your pitch, and how best to end.

Underdeveloped characters put a show in jeopardy. Make them strong! In film, strong characters are crucial, but structure is key. Know the ins and outs of your project!
